They bury the bone in front of everyone, and then post signs, that it\u2019s buried here.\n<\/p>\n\n<p>\nHow do you hide a mystery in plain sight?\nWith great skill!\n<\/p>\n\n<p>Odd Taxi appears as a mystery, but the real mystery is hidden inside the more obvious mystery. And when you open the hidden mystery, you see yourself reflected back at you.<\/p>\n\n<p>Some clues. Pay attention, very close attention to the OP, and to Episode 1 because clues are hidden there in plain sight.<\/p>\n\n<p>All of us here at Pywackett Productions were caught flat footed with Cider in our ears because we missed just about everything, and especially the obvious clues planted in the OP and EP1. When EP13 rolls around, it was like, \u201cHow did we miss all that?\u201d because everything is really, really obvious.<\/p>\n\n<p>I guess for a mystery fan, clues hidden in the open for all to see, seem much too obvious, so we discounted their veracity. Do not allow these guys, D: Baku Kinoshita and W: Kazuya Konomoto, to get away with this fraud. Whoever heard of real, honest clues, sitting there, right in the open for all to see. So you have been warned.<\/p>\n\n<p>Mister\u2019s Kinoshita and Konomoto technique is to present the true clue, and then do what all good magicians do, they misdirect attention by immediately moving on to some other plot point. This misdirection continues for the entire 13 episode run, until the final scene in Odokawa\u2019s Taxi<\/p>\n\n<p>All of the characters present as various kinds of animals, and this is part of the mystery about what the heck is going on here. Are we in a furry anime? What\u2019s the deal?<\/p>\n\n<p>Odd Taxi has a wonderful, crazy cast of characters and the entire plot revolves around its center which is Odokawa and his Taxi. <\/p>\n\n<p>Odd Taxi is really brilliant story telling, and will keep you locked into it\u2019s evolving mysteries. But one very serious hint is in the trailer above, the very last scene is Odokawa\u2019s closet. The trailer is suggesting that you concentrate on that closet and for good reason, because something key is hidden there, and will unlock the mysteries within mysteries that is \u201cOdd Taxi\u201d.<\/p>\n\n<p>Be prepared for a very fun ride in Odokawa\u2019s odd Taxi, one of the very best stories in recent memory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Live well and thrive!<\/p>\n\n\n<p>HIGHLY RECOMMENDED<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<p>\u00a9 2021 Folwine P.
